Not because it has 8 airbags. not because all it’s a ‘sleeper’ and I’ve never been pulled over by the cops in it. Not because it’s small, light, fast, and furious. What makes it really the hardcore machine it is? The keyless entry key. Let me explain… I washed my key today on the heavy duty setting with a 30 minute soak option, then dried it with my clothes on high for about 75 minutes (I was drying blue jeans). It wasn’t until the dry cycle was over that I realized what terrible thing I’ve done! My key was dry and clean so I decided to give it a shot and the keyless entry worked. And the moral of the story is… it’s okay to wash your VW key with your laundry. At the end of the day you’ll have a nice shiny working key.
